Your care broke them at once, and there has
been no recurrence Of them for more than
six months. The other case was of mildor
form, and yielded more readily TO other

A Great Crime Punished.

The court of appeals at Louisville,
KY, decided that John l.. Cornelison
must serve sentence OF three years
in hepenitentiary for cowhiding Judge
Richard Reid. The decision recalls
one of the most sensational tragedies
in the history OF the state. Reid was
judge OF the superior court, and it be-
came his duty to decide a case in
which Cornelison, who was q law
yer at Mount Sterling, was very
much Interested. Cornelison as
cribed improper motives to Reid,
and, visiting him at his office
in Mount Sterling lashed him with q
coshide. ItproGuced great sensation
at the time. There was but one thing
for Reid to do, under the Kentucky
code, and that was to kill Cornelison.
He vas a gentle, Christian man an up
right and honorable Judge, and he
could not take another's life; but,
stung with shame and humiliation, he
went to his Office and shot himself
through the head. Cornelison was ar
rested and sentenced to three years in
the penitentiary. The case was APP
pealed, and the decision sends the cul-
prit to prison unless the Governor par
dons him, and that is not probable.

1t is estimated that the average cost
o. rearing a yearling thoroughbred is
not more than $3.50. The averag.
price realized for the 463 head sold at
auction this year was $TS3, which
leaves handsome profit.
The bronze turkeys are supposed to
be q cross OF the wild turkey with the
domesticated variety. This is prob
ably the case, as the beautiful sheen
OF the plumage OF the bronze is the
same as that in the wild cnes. This
variety grows and fattens rapidly and
is easily made to weigh forty pounds
at two years old.
Many years ago, prominent Ohio
man paid a high price for a few Will
sons strawberry plants. He found
them good, planted largely and clear
ed 100000 while his neishbors were
considering whether it was advisable
to plant the variety.
Wool has varied in price from 1924
to 1856 from So cents in 1924 to 81
in 1865 and 25 cents in 1886.
The last price is the lowest
quoted during the whole 50 years, the
nearest figures beng 30 cents in 1S43;
32 cents in 1927; 33 cents in 1853,
and ~ cents in 1888. These prices
are for medium.

Farmers Clubs.

A writer in the Stockman advises
neighborhood clubs of farmers, and
thinks that small clubs are the most
useful. He says, III have madea care
ful study OF farmers clubs and how
to conduct them, for ten years. l at
first advocated county or township
clubs as the best possible organlza-
tion for the farmers, but / have at
tended some OF the best county clubs
to be found anywhere, and / have
never seen one that l thought would
compare with the local clubs with
which am familiar.
In the large club the attendance is
always irregular, and the talking is
sure to be done by the few. 1t is prob
ably impossible to get a hundred or
more men together in an organization
without getting some who are windy
and verbose, and IN the large organi-
zation the timid, who most need the
training that preparation for, and
participation in, the discus sion would
furnish, are given no chance.
"The best farmers club in my es-
tiiiiaGloi Is lllaue up OF Twelve or tnlr-
teen families; enough so they can meet
once month, and get round in a year,
meeting at the homes of the mem bers.
1t is well to have one extra family, so
that in case OF any good reason why
a family cannot take the club at the
time assigned, the extra family can
take it.
Z" The advantages OF the small club
are: J the members are all thorough
ly acquainted with each other from
the start; (2) the attendance is sure
to be regular, for in small organiza-
ton of this kind each member knows
he will be missed, and ten years OBJ
servation in two clubs of this kind has
shown me that member is rarely
absent unless unavoidably detained;
(3)in such a club every member is put
on duty.
"Our programme is prepared a year
IN advance, and printed, in which is
given the place and time of meeting,
and the topics and various sub-topics
to be discussed"

Campanini's Voice Knocked out
by American Whisky.

According to a stray item of Euro
pean news, Campanini is regaining his
voice to n great extent, but it will
never be the organ it was in his palmy
days. 1t maynot generally known,
says the Brooklyn Citizen, that the
lovial tenor is to be blamed for this
great deprivation-the result, curious
ly enough, OF his sudden lnfatuation
for an American drink, whisky and
seltzer, when he was starring years ago
at the Academy of Music. 1t is not
often that a continental European,
and an Italian at that, contracts q
love for our national drinks. The sub
lects OF her Majesty are about the only
Europeans who, when they come here,
indulge themselves with the American
counterpart of the home article. But
Campanini came to us at time when
the war had made the drinking habit
and the imbibing OF whisky very gem
eral with our people. He forsook his
chianta for bourbon, and las my in
formant tells me) thought O man a
fool who should drink the one when he
could get the other. The cafes along
Fourteenth street. where the Ameri
can "bar" IS added to the WINE shop
and bier-stube, were his resort for re-
taxation after rehearsal or after per-
formance. With a tumbler OF "veesky"
before him he took a childish delight
in toying with the siphon, and shoot
ing the kissing stream OF seltzer water
into the glass. Then slipping down
the foaming mixture, he becam radi-
antly happy and pronounced the
Americans the wisest OF people for
having concocted the drink of drinks.

An AntIdote for DiphtherIa.

The remedy is solution of chlorine,
which can be obtained by putting 10
grains of powdered chlorate of potash
in a dry eight-ounce vial and adding
lin the viaI 10 or fifteen drops OF by.
drochloric acid, to be brought in con.
tact with the potassa, corking the vi
al for five minutes to allow the chlorine
gas to be set free; then add water,
ounce by ounce, shaking between each
ounce with the vial stopped, until the
vial is filled. The light should be
kept from this solution by wrapping
the vial in dark cloth or covering it
with blue paper. In using the remedy
the mouth should be thoroughly rims
ed with it and q Tablespoonful swal-
lowed every halt hour. This gives it a
local effect in the mouth and throat,
and it meets and destroys any micro
coccl or bacteria found in the stom-
ach, and systemic effect is also OBJ
tained.

teaspoonful OF salt, two quarts of sift.
ed flour, one large spoonful OF lard,
one teaspoonful OF sugar, one-half cup
OF yeast or halt a COMPRESSED cake dis,

Then stir and knead thoroughly,

Hypnotism at Harvard.

1t is well known that Prof. James,
o. Harvard, has for some time been
investigating the phenomena Of hyp-
nouism, and there are one or two stu
dents who seem to have yielded them
selves up to him, body and soul, for
his experiments. He has, if report
speaks truly, gone much further than
is usually the case in such ex periments.
and has SO reduced the volition Of
these subjects to his control that heis
able to impel them to do acts upon
which he has determined hours after
the impulse is given and quite independ-
emily OF his presence. 1t is said that
he has not yet succeeded in making his
will carry Tor more than twenty-four
hours, but instances are related in
which he has determined that at Civ
en- hour on the following day subject
shall perform some singular action.
Without communicating his design to
any person whatever, and simply, SO
far as the uninitiated can understand,
by fixing his will upon the matter, ,heis
able to produce upon the mind of the.
subject an impression so strong and so
permanent that ut the given moment
the subject does what he is willed
SO do without any consciousness that
he is not acting OF his own free will
and even without the operator being
himself obliged to keep his design in
mind after the first determination, or,
so to speak, the original fat of his
mind. There are others in Cambridge
who have also developed similar pow
ers, and one of them, so the gossip
goes, willed that his subject, if he met
Prof. James within day, should say
to him: "How dreadful your nose
looks" On the next day the subject,
absolutely ignorant OF the resolve OF
his master, met the professor, whose
nose was in it's usual healthful state,
and with no apparent unconscious
ness of the absurdity Of the remark,
greeted him in the words quoted. The
subject is one of intense inter-
est, and suggests uncannv and HaW-
thornesque possibilities to the writer's
of fiction. One wonders q little, sup
posing the tales to be true. what the
students who allow their mental be-
ing thus to be eNperimentedi on are
thinking of, and how q parent would feel
if he discovered that his som 8 chief occu-
pationa at Harvard was to be hypnotix-
ed; although, OF course, report in such
matters is to be received with soma 4
caution. Providence journal.

Morning People and Evening People.

Sarah Orpe Jewett enforces her sug-
gestion that housekeepers place in the
guest chamber few books, SO that
their guests are not yet sleepy when
the family go to bed, they can find
something to read in the chamber, as
follows: The world will never accept
the fact that there are two classes o:
people-those who are at their best
when they wake early in the morning
and then run down like clocks,
and those who are at their
worst and weakest and dullest
when sleep is just over, but who are
gradually winding themselves up all
day, so that when evening comes they
are equal to anything. The trouble is
that the morning people are such
majority that they rule society and
make all its laws. The evening people
are obliged-poor things-to get up
and have breakfast when they do and
drag themselves out to keep early ap-
pointments, and when they come to
their happy evening and are wide
awake and blooming like primroses,
all the morning people are stupid and
sleepy and dunsympathetic.

Disrespcct to his Superior Off
Ger.

Gen. Wilson, OF cavalry fame, was
at Washington few days ago. He
tells this story about the rough sort
OF characters he had under him in the
army: His dinner had been prepared
one day in great hurry and put up
on a rude table for his convenience.
Before he could be called one of his
soldiers began to nelp himself, and had
made progress, too, when the general
arrived.
"What are you doing here2" ex-
claimed the general "Do you know
who l amp" 'Comrade, said the
soldier, II am satisfying my appetite.
l suppose you would like to do SO,
too, no matter who you are"
II am Gen. Wilson, your command

word by way OF protest he arose and,
grasping my hand, said: General,

Disposal Of Winter Manure,

Most farmers each winter draw the
manure from the stables direct upon
the land, and thus save two things
the accumulation ofmanure about the
stables to be in the way and the extra
exertion in April to get the manure to
the fields in time to plow the crop.
This practice suggests two other things:
First, that nature can better prepare
manure for plant food than any pro-
cess OF heaping and rottingi in she open
air can; and second that the soil will
absorb and retain the limited amount
OF valuable elements in manure-but
few pounds to each ton-unless the
circumstances are wholly against such
a thing such as a heavy coating of ice
on the ground and probable heavy
rains, or very steep hillsides with vio-
lent wash. The line of application
where manure is spread on hillside
in the winter, and where it was not as
indicated by the subsequent crop,
shows that the loss is largely imagin-
ary. But the most of us are slow to
learn, and often dispute the evidence
OF our own observations because it is
not In harmony with what we have
before regarded as facts.
